Please note that sub-Clause 7.1 does not exclude Our responsibility for mistakes due to negligence on Our part and refers only to minor variations of the correct Goods, not to different Goods altogether.Please refer to Clause 11 if you receive incorrect Goods (i.e. Goods that are not as described).

Orders – How Contracts Are Formed

Our Site will guide you through the ordering process.Before submitting your Order to Us you will be given the opportunity to review your Order and amend it.Please ensure that you have checked your Order carefully before submitting it.

No part of Our Site constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance.Your Order constitutes a contractual offer that We may, at Our sole discretion, accept.Our acknowledgement of receipt of your Order does not mean that we have accepted it.Our acceptance is indicated by Us sending you a Dispatch Confirmation by email.Only once We have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation will there be a legally binding Contract between Us and you.

Dispatch Confirmations shall contain the following information:

Confirmation of the Goods ordered including full details of the main characteristics of those Goods;

Fully itemised pricing for the Goods ordered including, where appropriate, taxes, delivery and other additional charges;

If We, for any reason, do not accept or cannot fulfil your Order, no payment shall be taken under normal circumstances.If We have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to you as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days.

Payment

Payment for Goods and related delivery charges must always be made in advance and you will be prompted to pay during the order process.Your chosen payment method will not be charged until We dispatch your Goods.

We accept the following methods of payment on Our Site:

Paypal;

Debit Card;

Delivery, Risk and Ownership

All Goods purchased through Our Site will normally be delivered within 30 calendar days of the date of Our Dispatch Confirmation unless otherwise agreed (subject to delays caused by events outside of Our control, for which see Clause 15).

If We are unable to deliver the Goods on the delivery date (if, for example, no one is available at your address to receive the Goods) 1) We will try our best to inform you of this before the delivery date if we know the date cannot be met prior to dispatch. 2) If a delivery is made and you are not able to accept delivery through not being in or not answering then in normal circumstances it would be down to yourself to arrange redelivery through the courier used. If they have left no contact details please contact us and we will endeavour to assist you. 3) All goods that have been signed for or confirmed by the courier as delivered remain the responsibility of the purchaser.

In the unlikely event that We fail to deliver the Goods within 30 calendar days of Our dispatch confirmation (unless otherwise agreed as under sub-Clause 10.1), if any of the following apply you may cancel your Order immediately:

We have refused to deliver your Goods; or

In light of all relevant circumstances, delivery within that time period was essential; or

You told Us when ordering the Goods that delivery within that time period was essential.

If you do not wish to cancel under sub-Clause 10.3 or if none of the specified circumstances apply, you may specify a new (reasonable) delivery date.If We fail to meet the new deadline, you may then cancel your Order.

You may cancel all or part of your Order under sub-Clauses 10.3 or 10.4 provided that separating the Goods in your Order would not significantly reduce their value.Any sums that you have already paid for cancelled Goods and their delivery will be refunded to you.Please note that if any cancelled Goods are delivered to you, you must return them to Us or arrange with Us for their collection.In either case, We will bear the cost of returning the cancelled Goods.

Delivery shall be deemed complete once We have delivered the Goods to the address provided in your Order.

The risk in the Goods shall remain with Us until they come into your physical possession.

Ownership of the Goods passes to you once we have received payment in full of all sums due (including any applicable delivery charges).

Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Goods

By law, We must provide goods that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, as described at the time of purchase, in accordance with any pre-contract information We have provided, and that match any samples or models that you have seen or examined (unless We have made you aware of any differences).If any digital content is included in the Goods, that digital content must also conform.If any Goods you have purchased do not comply and, for example, have faults or are damaged when you receive them, or if you receive incorrect Goods, please contact Us as soon as reasonably possible to inform Us of the fault, damage or error, and to arrange for a refund, repair or replacement.

Beginning on the day that you receive the Goods (and ownership of them) you have a 30 Calendar Day right to reject the Goods and to receive a full refund if they do not conform as stated above.Alternatively, you may request a repair of the Goods or a replacement.We will bear any associated costs and will carry out the repair or replacement within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to you.In certain circumstances, where a repair or replacement is impossible or otherwise disproportionate, We may instead offer you a full refund.If you request a repair or replacement during the 30 Calendar Day rejection period, that period will be suspended while We carry out the repair or replacement and will resume on the day that you receive the replacement or repaired Goods.If less than 7 Calendar Days remain out of the original period, it will be extended to 7 Calendar Days.If, after a repair or replacement, the Goods still do not conform (or if We cannot do so as previously described, or have failed to act within a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience to you), you may have the right either to keep the Goods at a reduced price, or to reject them in exchange for a refund.If you exercise the final right to reject the goods more than six months after you have received the Goods (and ownership of them), We may reduce any refund to reflect the use that you have had out of the Goods.

Please note that you will not be eligible to claim under this Clause 11 if We informed you of the fault(s), damage or other problems with the Goods before your purchase of the them (and it is because of the same issue that you now wish to return them); if you have purchased the Goods for an unsuitable purpose that is neither obvious nor made known to Us and the problem has resulted from your use of the Goods for that purpose; or if the problem is the result of normal wear and tear, misuse or intentional or careless damage.Please also note that you may not return Goods to Us under this Clause 11 merely because you have changed your mind.If you are a consumer in the European Union you have a legal right to a 14 calendar day cooling off period within which you can return Goods for this reason.Please refer to Clause 12 for more details.

To return Goods to Us for any reason under this Clause 11, please visit the returns page on Our Site to complete a returns form please contact Us to arrange for a collection and return.We will be fully responsible for the costs of returning Goods under this Clause 11 and will reimburse you where appropriate.

Refunds (whether full or partial, including reductions in price) under this Clause 11 will be issued within 14 Calendar Days of the day on which We agree that you are entitled to the refund.

Any and all refunds issued under this Clause 11 will include all delivery costs paid by you when the Goods were originally purchased.

For further information on your rights as a consumer, please contact your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office.

Cancelling and Returning Goods if You Change Your Mind

If you are a consumer in the European Union, you have a legal right to a “cooling off” period within which you can cancel the Contract for any reason.This period begins once your Order is complete and We have sent you your Dispatch Confirmation, i.e. when the Contract between you and Us is formed.

If the Goods are being delivered to you in a single instalment (whether single or multiple items), the cooling off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the Goods.

If the Goods are being delivered in separate instalments on separate days, the cooling off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the final instalment of Goods.

If your order is for the regular delivery of Goods over a defined period, the cooling off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the first delivery of Goods.

If you wish to exercise your right to cancel under this Clause 12, you must inform Us of your decision within the cooling off period.You may do so in any way you wish.Cancellation by email or by post is effective from the date on which you send Us your message.Please note that the cooling off period lasts for whole calendar days.If, for example, you send Us an email or letter by 23:59 on the final day of the cooling off period, your cancellation will be valid and accepted.If you would prefer to contact Us directly to cancel, please use the following details:
